A photographic history spanning a century of innovation in military aviation, this book features forty of Americas greatest combat aircraft from World War I to the modern era. This collection captures the "greatest generation" of warbirds-the restored B-17s, B-24s, P-38s, P-47s, P-51s, transports, trainers, bombers, and fighters-close-up at rest or flashing in action by a premier air-to-air aviation photographer. Each of the 250 photographs-200 in color-is accompanied by detailed information on the pictured aircraft, its pilot, crew, and unique history, making this volume the ultimate resource on combat aircraft in the twentieth century.
